Used 2005 Chevrolet Uplander Minivan for sale in East Wenatchee, WA

Somehow - you have found yourself here - looking at an ad for a minivan. Sad times indeed. Face it - you’re not too old to have forgotten what youth was like. Bonfires, barhopping, mud trucks, 4 wheelers - all sorts of depravity and fun were at your fingertips.

Heck, a legend like yourself was probably the inspiration for a movie like Van Wilder or Road Trip. You would certainly not be caught dead driving a mommy missile unless it was necessary to haul kegs for a weekend rager, right?

Then, without warning, the glory days dipped out like a thief in the night, leaving you a nagging spouse, 2.5 kids and a dog. Now you find yourself renting a 2nd-floor apartment in a 3 story building, and wondering to yourself when you agreed to start adulting?!?

However, if you are gonna have to roll around in an amorphous blob on wheels to ensure your blessed mistakes….err, angelic children make it to dance recitals, soccer games, and who knows what else (all conveniently scheduled at the same exact time of course!) - you might as well save a few bucks on a good used model that has some creature comforts that will help make the wailing of snot nosed brats & gnashing of your teeth slightly more bearable!

That's where this 2005 Chevrolet Uplander comes in - if you gotta subject yourself to driving a minivan, might as well make it not suck, and not break the bank in the process! This Uplander is a fully loaded model with 184K miles and a V6 engine. It runs and drives smoothly, gets reasonable fuel mileage, and has dual sliding doors with room for 7 (even more if you’re trying to do things clown-car style!)

At this price, the amount of comfort should simply be illegal. The leather captains chairs feel like highway-capable La-Z-Boy recliners, there’s enough room that your uncouth crib lizards will have to make some effort to reach over & slap each other around, and with amenities like fully functioning AC and heat and a DVD player that sometimes works - you’ll know you’ve got it good, just not TOO good!

As with anything that’s cheap and American, it's not perfect - the power steering tends to mark its own territory, and the ABS and brake lights will mesmerize you into simply not noticing them after the first few weeks of ownership. (The Check Engine light also comes on - but here's a Pro Tip: Don’t Worry! The engine is STILL there.) However, it runs and drives well enough and it even starts when it’s asked to. If you expect more out of a vehicle - spend more money.

All in all, if you need a rig to function as the proverbial Swiss Army Knife - carrying the chilrens, the groceries, the honey-do stuff, and pretty much anything but your own self-respect - come and drive this plush hooptie home today!

$1350 in Wenatchee - Buyer to go with seller to transfer vehicle at time of purchase.
